In August, i went to Portugal.  Theo, Cole, and my cadet leaders were also going to Portugal before making there way to Ghana to help build and paint a primary school.  One bright sunny, boiling day i was helping my aunty out in her cafe.  When he walked in.  You guessed it, Theo. I worried about what was going to be said.

'Can i have a can of coke please' he had said without actually looking up.

'sure, that's 80 cents please' i just murmured in a polite way; like i didn't know who he was.

'Jess? what are you doing here, and hows it going?'

'yeah its me; i am helping my aunty in her...' i began to say until i got interrupted by my aunty.

'who's this then? do you know him? you have a job to do.' 

as i continued what i was saying 'It's Theo, he goes to Cadets with me, he is over here with the cadet leaders and Cole. As i was saying Theo, i am helping out in my auntys cafe and yeah i am...'

'come on jessica, work to be done'

I had been rudely interrupted by her again 'i shall just leave you to it then' Theo said awkwardly.

'Yeah, ok bye' i felt awkward and broken at the same time. Had he forgot what happened? Did he just want it to pass over his head? I didn't know what was going on. I was confused. Lonely. Broken.
